Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Usually ships in 24 hours. "Puzz 3D Orient Express has 4 difficulty levels, from easy to super-challenging. I started off on the third level which is the challenging level. That level is just as challenging as the 1000-peice puzzles you buy in the store. The only difference is this: once you put the puzzle together, the fun doesn't stop. The difficulty level you choose determines how much of the Orient Express you can explore. You get to meet all kinds of different people as well as learn about the history of the train. Plus, during the exploration phase, there are other games along the way as well as clues to a mystery guest who is supposed to board the train. I haven't finished the exploration portion yet, but I am already thinking about going back to rebuild the train at the super-challenging level. This way, I will have unlimited access to the entire train. This Puzzle is very addictive and fun."

[Ages of Empires (MAC)]
CUSTOMER RATING 4.5 out of 5 stars Usually Ships in 24 Hour
Years after being critically acclaimed by Windows gamers, Age of Empires finally arrives for the Mac. Fortunately the game, like the empires it encourages you to emulate, is built to withstand the test of time.
As a real-time strategy game, Age of Empires requires you to gather resources, build cities, defend your lands, and conquer neighboring countries. Rather than casting you in a fantasy or science fiction world, Age of Empires sets you up as the aspiring ruler of any one of a dozen historically prominent civilizations that you must lead through Stone, Tool, Bronze, and Iron ages. The scramble for resources is typical of the genre, but Age of Empires offers some clever variations (for example, food can be hunted, gathered, or harvested) and directly ties technological advancements to a civilization's progress. Use economic, military, or naval technologies to achieve game goals. Build armies from dozens of military units, including warships and war elephants. Choose your own historical epoch. Play with up to 8 players via LAN or the Internet. Command one of 12 ancient civilizations.
